Funny in the Fire

After what feels like 47 years (but was really just a hiatus), we’re back! This week, Brittany and Katie catch up on everything we’ve missed—from Katie’s vacation adventures to the uniquely millennial experience of realizing that buying a house now requires either winning the lottery or discovering long-lost royalty in your family tree. We’re diving into the blessing and curse that is social media...

This week, Brittany and Katie are joined by Kelly, owner of FIT4MOM Northern Kentucky, for a conversation about finding community in motherhood, getting back into movement postpartum, and why sometimes the workout is just an excuse to talk to another mom who gets it. They cover Stroller Strides, Body Ignite, Strides 360, the chaos of bringing kids anywhere, unsolicited comments moms hear way too o...

We’re back together this week and catching up on  everything —starting with a recap of Katie’s solo episode featuring our incredible guests from last week.

Moms Matter Too with After the Glow & Vessel Collective For the first time in Funny in the Fire history… Brittany is out and Katie is flying solo and she’s not alone. This episode, Katie steps in as your host IRL (yes, actually in person, not through a tiny screen) and brings on two powerhouse women from the NKY community: Rachel of After the Glow, a maternal mental health therapist, and Cindy...

Katie’s birthday celebration takes center stage this week as she recounts the chaos and hilarity of Bingo Loco—because nothing says “mom’s night out” like loud music, dancing, and a little competitive bingo. From there, Brittany and Katie dive into the realities of adulthood, including open houses and the questionable discovery of saggy bathroom floors. The conversation shifts into some spicy pare...

This week on Funny in the Fire, Brittany and Katie spiral from innocent school projects (yes, including a competitive bunny ear contest) to… Brittany casually attending her senior class trip at the Playboy Mansion. As one does. They unpack the absolute horror of realizing a 20-year high school reunion is around the corner (who approved that timeline??), dabble in transcendental meditation, and som...

Welcome to Spring 2026! Brittany and Katie are kicking things off with a heavy dose of congestion, migraines, and the joys of "Strep Season." Between alternating Tylenol and Motrin for the kids and navigating the "climbing the walls" chaos of pediatric urgent care, the duo dives into the wild world of the "default parent." Katie recounts her recent Instagram battle wi...

This week, we’re spiraling (gracefully?) from rapid aging—hello hollow eyes, sun spots, and crow’s feet—into the pop culture chaos of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives (⚠️ heads up: we start discussing it at 8:47, and we recorded on Thursday 3/19 before more details came out). We get into the grey zone of dating, why The Bachelor is basically a gateway drug to becoming a content creator, and the un...

We made it to  Episode 10  and we are  way too excited about it . 🎉 This week’s episode of  Funny in the Fire  is full of chaotic stories, questionable childhood decisions, and the usual mom-life reality checks. We kick things off with Brittany explaining the  gourmet buffet her dog Milli apparently enjoyed , which included an emergency stash of  Zofran, an EpiPen, Tylenol, and Klonopin  (because...

From the struggle of formula woes to the absolute tragedy of an overripe avocado, we’re covering it all. We discuss how excited we are that Diva Cup noticed us, the fine art of smuggling alcohol into the club, and how we confirmed our friendship via slutty Halloween costumes. In this episode, we’re also tackling: Anatomy 101: Why our kids insist on treating the family dog like a science experiment...

This week on Funny in the Fire, we are truly… going THROUGH it. We kick things off with the kind of postpartum glow no one talks about — armpit stank that could clear a room — and somehow spiral straight into the anxiety Olympics featuring RSV in babies and daycare illnesses that just keep on giving. Katie’s aura ring is out here choosing violence, casually ruining her peace on a daily basis. Natu...

Bathing suit ads lie. Full stop. This episode spirals (naturally) from why models don’t need to be “sucked in,” to chasing kids at the beach in what feels like a wetsuit, to the universal fear of a rogue boob escaping mid-movement. There’s twerking (yes), vacation delusion, and the harsh reality that traveling with kids is just parenting… somewhere hotter. We get into wanting to move wherever you...

In this episode of Funny in the Fire, things start off innocent enough with toddler school tantrums… and then immediately spiral (naturally).We unpack the dark humor of “if it’s your ticket, it’s your ticket,” why that thought is somehow both comforting and deeply unsettling, and how one spiral can quickly turn into another — especially when you spiral to help the original spiral. Make it make sen...

In this episode of Funny in the Fire, Brittany and Katie start with good intentions (Pilates, wellness, poise) and immediately spiral into absolute chaos. We talk Pilates—what it promises vs. how feral it actually makes us feel—then somehow detour into destination weddings, Disney movies, and a very specific 2016 era trend that had us fully convinced we were thriving (spoiler: we were not). We als...

We rang in the New Year the only way exhausted moms truly can… by doing absolutely nothing. In this episode, Brittany and Katie recap their very unglamorous New Year’s Eve, dive into the absolute disaster that is potty training (looking at you, Elmo potty), and unpack the wildest recurring dreams that make zero sense but feel way too real. We also bring back Hate or Relate, where we confess to pro...

January is the longest month of the year — especially when you’re six weeks postpartum, running on cold coffee, and trying to convince yourself that “new year, new you” doesn’t apply to sleep deprivation. In this episode, Brittany and Katie check in on the emotional rollercoaster of postpartum life — from adrenaline crashes and gaslighting yourself into optimism, to learning how to surrender to ev...

In this episode of Funny in the Fire, Brittany and Katie dive headfirst into the postpartum chaos no one fully prepares you for.

They share raw, personal stories about deciding to stop brea...

Motherhood is messy, hilarious, and often involves way more bodily fluids than anyone warned us about—and in our very first episode of Funny in the Fire, we’re diving right into all of it.
